The type of food that could affect male sex hormones

• Danish research indicates that diets high in ultra-processed foods, including fast food and chicken nuggets, can disrupt male sex hormones.
• Men consuming these foods were found to have increased levels of cxMINP, a chemical used in plastics that disrupts hormones, alongside decreases in testosterone and follicle-stimulating hormone.
• These hormonal changes are linked to degraded sperm quality and contribute to the global decline in sperm counts, according to the study.
• The research also revealed that ultra-processed foods lead to greater fat mass gain compared to unprocessed diets, even when calorie intake is consistent.
• Researchers from the University of Copenhagen expressed surprise at the extent of bodily function disruption observed in healthy young men, advocating for revised nutritional guidelines.
